This is interesting: according to mountnfs() in nfs_vfsops.c, those are
already the kernel defaults:

    if ((argp->flags & NFSMNT_NFSV3) && argp->sotype == SOCK_STREAM) {
        nmp->nm_wsize = nmp->nm_rsize = NFS_MAXDATA;
    } else {
        nmp->nm_wsize = NFS_WSIZE;
        nmp->nm_rsize = NFS_RSIZE;
    }

$ grep nfs_maxdata /sys/nfs/*
/sys/nfs/nfsproto.h:#define     NFS_MAXDATA     32768

But it looks like /sbin/mount_nfs always overrides them to NFS_WSIZE
and NFS_RSIZE (both 8K) in its nfsdefargs struct.
